DK Metcalf made one of the plays of the night and, no, this one wasn't a spectacular catch. Late in the second quarter, Russell Wilson's pass intended for Chris Carson was intercepted by Budda Baker. Baker hit the open field and chances of stopping him before the end zone looked bleak. And then DK Metcalf showed up. Tracking back 90 yards, Metcalf hit a top speed of 22.64 miles per hour and caught up to Baker, dragging him down at the 8-yard line.

In the ensuing series, the Seahawks defense held the Cardinals to just 5 yards, forcing a turnover on downs.
